I like the implementation, especially with the tooltip popping up anywhere in the
area. Thanks. |

Thank you. I had added the "Move To" and this works at the log entry level (i.e., "Move
To <name>) but in the threaded view one does not get the enumerated list of logbooks.
I'll play around with it a little more before re-posting. When it didn't work as I
expected I read the docs and ran across the confusing text - so I stopped and asked!
Thanks again. |

Ok, just checking. I will fiddle around with running it interactively and see what
I get, plus I'll have a look at the setuser function under Solaris.
Just for grins, what version of compiler are you using under Linux?
Thanks again! |
